COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This ale is made with a special roast of caramel malt, which gives it a lovely red hue and subtle caramel flavor. A large amount of hops is added late to the kettle and the fermentor, giving this beer a wonderful floral nose with hints of nectar and citrus carrying through to the palate. 23.6 IBU, 16.35 Plato, 7.65%

On tap at the brewpub. It pours a reddish copper color with an off white head. The aroma is very strong of caramel with some herbal hoppiness. The flavor has caramel, berries and a strong hoppy finish with hints of pine, spice and toasted malt. Probably their best beer that I’ve had.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours golden amber to dark orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is light caramelish and dry breadish. Fruity, quite hoppy fruity and with a mild phenolic note. Bitter, dry and fruity finish.
